Lily of the valley
Full Moon Rising 
Primrose path
Parchment
Rainstorm golden sunflowers
Prance around the dance with the lilies

Fear surrounds me; in his devious fog of doubt
His fickleness pretends to be my friend
Promising to protect me from a perilous end
Diminishing my courage into splintered heaps
I battle constantly; teetering on uncertainty
Piercing my vulnerability; Paralyzing my mobility
Stalking me on my primrose path
Tiled in miles of fool’s gold...

You won't lead me down the primrose path
I refuse to be your benighted minion 
So shove your beautifully woven tapestry of lies 
You won't lead me down the primrose path
'Tis an aesthetically looking road to perdition 
God is the way; the route to the highest of highs
You won't lead me down the primrose path
I refuse to be your benighted minion

Death, He is a gentleman.
Why? So you might ask.
He invites you to his caravan, 
And offers you His flask.
He is polite and courtly.
With manners yet unmatched.
You'll arrive in Heaven shortly,
Following a primrose path.
He will treat you as a peer,
You are assured of that.
You have not a thing to fear
When He tips His weathered hat.
Oh, Death, how kind You be,
For You eradicate my misery.

Don’t stray from the primrose path little girl
But follow the way that is true
For there in the wood someone’s up to no good
And he waits for a lass such as you

He’ll appear to be perfectly charming
And will blind you with words, sugar sweet
You’ll fall under his spell and we know all too well
He’s just looking for someone to eat

So look straight ahead as you travel, and
Be careful to mind where you tread
Don’t talk to any grey strangers, or
Tomorrow you’ll find yourself dead...
